Hi,
Has anybody any experience with the various rapid single shot adapters: that is which ones are best?
I'm looking at getting one for my rapid (which doesn't have the scalloped block) and I am wondering how they are in actual use?
Thanks
Dave

I have hands like a bunch of bananas, I don’t have any problems loading pellets into my rapids, it’s a knack to get it right but easy once learned.

I have found them all to be a waste of money.

Hi 32:1, Thanks for the reply. Do you mean the ones from smw enginineering?

Thanks Chris
Every one I have used has been a variant of a plastic shape inserted into the breech slot. The only design I like is the one for the HW100 where part of the adapter swings out and makes pellet insertion very easy. OK I don't have large fingers so manual insertion isn't a problem for me.
If one works for you then fine but I suspect that in due course all of them will be left behind when you go shooting. The only solution for Rapid users who need single shot loading on a regular basis is to have a Rapid block with the scalloped loading port. Everything else is a poor compromise.

Hi Nick
These loaders stay clipped in place so mine never leave the block, I did ask Rowan if they would make one like you say but sadly not enough volume, quite honestly these off fleabay work brilliantly, I do use scalloped blocks to and have even tested groups with the loader V mag V thumbed in, single loader wins everytime.

Thanks for your input Chris. At the price asked they are certainly worth a try.

You could all of course save up and buy a RAW HM 1000. They are scalloped both sides and are a doddle to single load. £1500 a bit more expensive than a £6 plastic item though (but well worth it!!!)
